A Night to Remember

Death by A Thousand Cuts

Zelle POV

Hapon na kami nakauwi dahil nastuck ulit kami sa traffic.Ang layo rin pala kasi ng byinahe namin. All the way home ay natulog lang ako or should I say nagpanggap na tulog.

"So kaya naman pala bigla kayong nawalang dalawa  dahil okay na ulit kayo. Bati na naman kaya ang aso't pusa namin sa bahay" hindi mapigilang puna ni Kuya Dylan sa amin. Tyler keep on eyeing me, I don't know why kaya di ko na lang pinansin yun.

"Zelle crave for siomai so I decided to treat her. Isa pa pampalubag-loob ko na din" natatawang sagot ni Drayn. So that's the real reason. What would I expect from him?

Kumuha ako ng tubig sa kusina bago umupo ulit sa living room. Tinatamad pa kong pumanhik sa taas. Isa pa napagod din ako sa Biyahe.

"So where did you bring her" Curious na tanong ni Taz.

"Freya's restau, alam niyo naman na its one of the best restau we have her in Philippines. She enjoyed it a lot. We even roam around dahil buong akala ni Zelle nasa China na siya" patuloy niyang kwento sa kanila. I notice Eury keep on looking to Drayn. I don't know if she's still inlove with Drayn or not. The truth is among the seven, they had the most interesting story. A bad boy falling for a good girl. A good girl falling for the bad boy.

"So to be specific, you had a date with Zelle" biglang sabi ni Zac. And we all look at him in unison. I was about to say something when Drayn already speak up.

"You're misinterpreting things guys, its not a date, Zelle and I had no special things going on. Kayo na rin nagsabi were like a dog and a cat. Were just friends. Don't give Eury a false idea about me and most importantly to her cousin which is Zelle" his voice is annoyed because of what Zac blurted out. Ewan ko ba sa Doctor na yan kesyo hindi daw namin napapansing dalawa.

"Okay sabi mo eh" sabat naman ni kuya Dylan. I feel like there's tension going on in this room. But I don't know  where it came from.

"Why don't we ask Zelle if you don't want to believe it. We all both knew that I'm still inlove with Eury and you're saying that ridiculous idea. I don't know what brings you that idea. But just to make sure if its true or not."

"Sinamahan niya lang ako na kumain ng siomai, it turns out na may alam siyang restau which we ended up eating there. Also its his way to apologize to me. Kung ano man iniisip niyo, stop that, we all know that Drayn is still inlove with my cousin and he's trying his best to win her back kahit na kayong mga kaibigan niya yung karibal niya. He's just thankful because I'm helping him about Eury and he is just returning the favor on me" di ko mapigilang sabat at paliwanag. They don't need to do or say that. I don't know if my feelings is obvious to them nor they misinterpret the things that Drayn did  for me. Whatever their reason to say those things, It doesn't matter anyway! I know where to stand. I know my limit. As much as possible I'm trying my best to be contented with that.

"Okay no need to be defensive, you two" sagot ni Kaden pertaining to us.

Ako lang yung defensive Kaden kung alam mo lang. Drayn on the other hand was a big question mark. Hindi ko na sinabi yun at tumahimik na lang. Mabuti naman at bumalik sa dati yung ambiance sa living room. I decided to go upstairs to rest since inaantok na naman ako. Preggy with this thing you called "side effects" or symptoms.

------
Dinner na nung magising ako. Stephen cook for us and syempre masarap yun. He's an international Chef so what would you expect.
As usual we eat all together and we manage to get the Dudes eat in silence. Nasanay kasi kami ni Eury na kapag kumakain tahimik lang. Its like respecting the food you eat. Nung mga nakaraan araw kasi ang gugulo nila kaya naman medyo nagalit si Eury sa kanila. Eury really has the power to tame those Dudes. She's really one of a kind.
